1917 ROTARY MEETING

Kansas City, Atlanta and Salt Lake Seek Convention—Terre Haute Puts In Bid for 1845.

CINCINNATI, O., July 18.—After a short business session today in which the report of the committee on constitution was received, the convention of International Rotary clubs in session here entered into a general discussion on "Honorary Members in Rotary" and "Rotary in the Smaller Cities."

The fight for the next convention has grown lively between Kansas City, Atlanta, and Salt Lake City, while Chattanooga is asking for the 1918 meeting. The selection of the next convention city will be made Friday

An invitation to visit Dayton, Ohio. Friday, was extended to the convention today by John H. Patterson and the Dayton Rotary club. While the convention did not accept the invitation as a whole, many clubs did and several special trains will take them to Dayton, where they will first be en teretained by the Dayton Rotary club and then by Mr. Patterson with luncheon at the plant of the National Cash Register Co., of which Mr. Patterson is president.

The first rounds of the Rotary tennis tournament were held yesterday afternoon, Salt Lake City defeating Akron, O., 6-3, 6-4, and Kansas City defeating Cincinnati, 6-4, 9-7. Salt Lake City and Kansas City were to play this afternoon.

Terre Hauteans Active.

The Terre Haute delegates at the convention are hustlers and they have demonstrated this fact by the manner in which they are boosting their home city. Of the 7,000 Rotarians registered in Cincinnati more than 5,000 of them are wearing triangular badges inscribed "Terre Haute Wants You in 1945." Former Secretary Louis E. Weinstein arrived in the city Sunday morning and started pinnning the badges on every Rotarian to be found and later he was joined in this work by F. F. Winslow, Dr. E. E. Baldridge, L. L. Turner, Fred Reynolds, Charles Mooter and others from Terre Haute.

Monday evening the Rotarians gathered at the Zoo where the delegates from Atlanta had provided a halfdozen car loads of Georgia watermelons. While engaged in an attack on this menu the men were treated to a concert by a number of bands massed together, totaling about 300 musicians.

Most of the business session was devoted to the discuBsion pf what to do with past Rotarians. The session opened with an address of welcome by Mayor Puchta, of Cincinnati. Other addresses were delivered by Allen D. Albert, international president Governor Willis, of Ohio, and Ralph A. Tingle, president of the Cincinnati Rotary club.

In the Rotary golf tournament, Victor L. Siriith, Atlanta, won the prize for the lowest individual score with 82. The four lowest scores qualified the following cities to participate in the seifti-finals this afternoon: Springfield, O., 172 Atlanta, 177 Memphis, 177 Cincinnati, 183.
